This will mark the 31st overall mission for Jeff Bezos’ space tourism company, and the 11th suborbital flight with humans on board. The pop superstar will be joined by a diverse crew for the spaceflight, including broadcast journalist Gayle King, activist Amanda Nguyen, movie producer Kerianne Flynn, Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sánchez, and former NASA aerospace engineer Aisha Bowe. Liftoff will take place at “Launch Site One” in West Texas, with the flight’s launch window opening at 8:30 a.m. CT.
